Open Day at the Calouste Gulbenkian Park

Description

The Calouste Gulbenkian Park was acquired in 1937 by Calouste Gulbenkian (1869-1955), business man and aesthete at the same time, one of the greatest art collectors of the 20th century. He wanted to create here the garden he was dreaming about and entrusted his project to Achille Duchêne.

Seventy years after its creation, Le parc des Enclos - bequeathed to the City of Deauville in 1973 - remains a magic place, an unknown cheerful aspect of a secret Deauville. Above all, the park has preserved the charm and beauty that his creator had given to it in ancient times, with a rare sensitivity.
